Chapter 24 Gains and Losses

"People without far-sightedness will have near-term worries! Especially as a businessman, you must be careful at all times, and don't be unlucky because of your greed!"

In order to explain this truth to Ning Weimin, in order to make him pay attention to this truth.

Kang Shude even recounted a personal experience when he first arrived in the capital as a practical example.

Ganqing Decades ago, because of the famine, the old man Kang who ran from his hometown to the capital was only 11 years old, a down-and-out boy who couldn't get enough to eat.

When he first arrived in the capital, he was alone and without support.

Don't say that you have no money, you don't even have your relatives and fellow villagers around.

Fortunately, the weather was warm when he came.

The capital is also the capital of benevolence, and the people are kind, benevolent and relatively wealthy.

Relying on the good-hearted people in the city to give him a few bites to eat, he will not become a starving death on the side of the road.

It's just that being a beggar isn't as easy as ordinary people think.

Because the old society was chaotic, but the underground was orderly and hierarchical.

Especially in Beijing, the largest city in the country.

In several generations of imperial cities, beggar gangs have become more developed.

Almost every area in the city has a corresponding beggar organization.

In fact, since the end of the Qing Dynasty, the capital beggar gang has been jointly controlled by the "blue pole" and "yellow pole" beggars.

The "Yellow Pole" is an organization of high-level hackers, which is made up of the poor and poor children of the Eight Banners.

"Blue Pole" is the leader of ordinary beggars, and there are people from all over Beijing.

No matter which pole they have, they are all part of the gang, and they are often distinguished by the surname of the head.

Such as Hanmen, Qimen, Guomen and so on.

People who join these organizations are professional beggars.

They don't want pancakes to eat or drink, they just want money.

Those who are called "on the pole" by the people are also called "the poor family".

Therefore, if outsiders want to live by begging in the capital, it is tantamount to violating their interests.

It is easy to say that you want to eat and drink in a small alley, but it is impossible to ask for money on the street.

Because the prosperous streets and shops everywhere are the place for these organized beggars to make a living.

Not only have they been divided up long ago, but they also have strict rules and ways of doing things.

They abide by the rules that they can't make money, and never allow others to set foot in their own territory.

Once outsiders are found trying to beg, they will use violence to expel or impose punishment.

To be honest, beggar gangs like these shabby houses are actually quite a large evil force.

Not only can outsiders not be offended, but even ordinary merchants who do business in Beijing have to be kind to them.

Otherwise, once they break the jar, they can stir up trouble for you and close the door.

The degree of domineering is similar to that of the old Beijing's dung tyrants, vegetable tyrants, and local gangsters who eat Tianqiao entertainers.

However, perhaps Kang Shude is born with the potential to become a businessman.

Relying on his innate shrewd mind, he actually found a new way in such a situation, found a blind spot for begging, and successfully broke through the blockade of the beggar gang in the capital.

That is the door of the special business establishment with red lanterns hanging in Bada Hutong every day.

It is especially for the rich people who are dressed in bright clothes and swaggering in and out of here with women's waists in their arms.

There is no doubt that it stands to reason that a place like this would not allow beggars to appear.

The club owner is afraid of bad business.

But Kang Shude's method is more clever, he doesn't know how to beg.

Instead, try to clean up as much as possible, and then wait at the door with a box of matches.

As soon as he saw the rich and "professional women" taking out cigarettes when they went out, he trotted forward.

Then put on your toes, and take the initiative to pay respects to the rich.

I hope the rich uncle will be happy and give them a little money.

At the same time, he was also very respectful to those "big teapots" and women who were engaged in special occupations because he was asking for a living at the door.

"Master" is long, "Girl" is short.Not only did they sound good, but they also knew how to use the reward money to buy cigarettes for them.

It should be said that his young age, thin stature, and good relationship with people who are good at liking made him take advantage.

With his pitiful looks and this rudimentary PR skillset, he gained a certain acquiescence to find a place to make a living here.

Later, because he managed more and more carefully and mastered the tricks of liking more and more, his livelihood entered a virtuous circle.

The cleaner he cleans up his appearance, the more reward he will get.

The better the cigarettes he buys for those "girls" and "big teapots", the more help he gets.

He stopped buying cigarettes as a reward until he was almost able to get a piece of the ocean from this business every day.

Instead, it is consciously transformed into a more affordable return, and a part of the profit is regularly distributed to those "girls" and "big teapots".

In this way, he and these people have truly become people on the same line.

Then, with these girls as "child care", with the help of "big teapot", it is easier for him to get more money.

For example, which guest has a good face, that guest has a bad temper, and that guest has big hands.

With the "big teapot" reminder and guidance, he can choose the target in a targeted manner.

If he encounters those guests who have no intention of reward, the "girl" who accompanies him will also help.

As long as they express anger, act coquettishly, and help with a good word, it usually works immediately.

Men, it is such a stinky virtue, love is magnified in front of women.

Even if he is a master who won't lose his fart even in private, he is often afraid of such flamboyant swaying.

As long as the girls show their means, most of the guests will honestly become cash cows, and voluntarily drop their money.

So when the weather turns cold, Kang Shude has been able to mix well.

Not only did he buy a new cotton-padded jacket to keep out the cold, but he also found a simple row house to live in.

You can also eat stewed fire, or rotten meat noodles.

But unfortunately, success is also shrewd, and defeat is also shrewd.

If, at this point, he can satisfy such a well-off life, he will keep doing it as it is.

Maybe a few more years to come.

Unfortunately, he has a big heart.

Out of self-control, he actually tried to develop this business model into industrialization.

He took the initiative to recruit orphans and taught them how to ask for money.

Then, the little beggars under his command were scattered to "open" in front of different clubs in Bada Hutong.

When it started, it was really smooth sailing, and Kang Shude's income suddenly doubled several times.

However, this good business of comfortably earning big bucks doesn't last long.

Because the huge profits can not be underestimated, and the size of the movement is not the same.

When there are too many people, they lose their concealment, which is no longer something he can cover up.

Not to mention the other side, it is said that he takes these little beggars to collect money every day.

Then gangs go to the restaurant to eat in a big group, which is a new thing that people can't ignore.

So soon, the head of the local beggar gang found him.

On a snowy night, several beggars smashed Kang Shude's house.

Not only did he reward him with a meal, but he also broke the little finger of his right hand.

He also looted his money, stripped off his cotton-padded clothes, and took away all the little beggars.

Even completely ignoring his pleas to share some of the money to stay afloat.

Order him not to appear in his own territory in the future, otherwise he will die.

In this way, under the blow of dimensionality reduction, Kang Shude has no resistance at all.

Everything he encountered was like the Camel Xiangzi written by Lao She, desperately saving money to buy a car.

As a result, almost overnight, because of Detective Sun's extortion and extortion, he lost everything.

He fell into a white place, and he didn't know where to go.

In the end, the old man couldn't help expressing such emotion towards Ning Weimin.

"Weimin, violence is just the helpless act of stupid people. Those people only know how to use force to solve problems quickly, but ignore the long-term interests. In the end, there is no doubt that they can't manage as well as I do."

"But more importantly, their stupidity brought me a catastrophe that I couldn't bear. At that time, I didn't know how to keep a low profile, and I didn't know how to take it as soon as possible. I was too confident and obsessed with profit. The way of evil."

"The most useful thing I've learned from this is to be cautious at all times, try not to take unnecessary risks, and learn to accept it as soon as it is good. Because once a business can make huge profits, it will always be coveted and cause trouble. "

(Note: The big teapot, a man who is a middle-class worker in a special business place, is called because he often carries a kettle to make tea. In addition to being responsible for serving "girls", he also generally acts as a security guard. This occupation is called in the south. turtle)
